Hoseline Advancement & Rehab Operations Drill for 07/11/22
 
By Vista Fire Department
July 12, 2022
 

This week's Monday Night Drill was "Hoseline Advancement & Rehab Operations" for our members.

The "Hoseline Advancement & Rehab Operations" drill had our Vista Firefighters practicing several different extended stretches in Meadow Pond Elementary School. This type of training helped prepare our Firefighters for fires that would require an extended stretch into a large building such as Meadow Pond Elementary School. We would like to thank the Katonah-Lewisboro School District for allowing us to train at Meadow Pond this past Monday night!

While our Firefighters were participating in several different extended stretch scenarios, our Vista EMS personnel practiced "Rehab Operations" which was designed to ensure Firefighters' physical and/or mental well-being during an emergency scene. Due to the dangers that come with Firefighting, rehab operations play a crucial role in making sure all of our emergency responders stay safe. The Vista Fire Department is fortunate enough to offer both Fire & EMS services which allows our members to train together in scenarios such as these.
